I’m not sure why I found this on a list video of idle/incremental games?

Damn just wanted to see if there anything about Jet Lancer (recently completed it on the second ending) and found you, you definitely deserve more subs.

Played it, game is way too easy. Beat normal first try, put my reasearch points in, beat hard first try.

Nice vid

it's actually pretty nice to hear it's not just redoing what into the breach already did so well. the puzzle-oriented design actually sounds like it'd appeal to some people more than a roguelite (certainly someone i know who was put off by it being so similar to an established roguelite) as for the end-of-video question: do you plan to open a community space for the channel (discord server, forum etc), or are you content with leaving that to the comments section?

No GW3 on that list? 😢

This is so lovely! Thanks for sharing this!

hard to believe we've entered an era where what amounts to a video game adaptation of a meme ends up having some pretty good depth in design good analysis. as a side note though, it's probably worth tossing a link to the game in the description?

Amazing as always!

Starch and Holly are my go to. Cactus also

Do you still play it? I bet you sacrifice the Awoken for fun.

yeah you pretty much hit the nail on the head here. MMOs especially got hit hard by this historically but it's becoming an even more frustrating trend with more recent online-only things especially in the preservation angle even if a game does keep running for a long time it seems in fashion to push so many updates that it's practically unrecognizable from a year or two before. in a perfect world all these versions would be easily accessible (minecraft for example is very good about keeping older versions officially available) but.. not profitable i guess

No way this ever happens, but I think US IP law needs to catch up with the times and understand that digital creations are worth preserving like physical products. Either you offer complete refunds for all purchases or you release all materials relating to a product to your customers. And to make sure it doesn't have a knock on effect on small creators say something like $1,000,000 revenue for a given product (including variants and addons). We can even throw in a bonus, if you are depreciating some product you get to, after some window (180 days), wash your hands of legal liability like class action lawsuits or civil damage (if not already in litigation/court filings). The profound loss of digital goods will become more and more of an imperative as much of our lives revolves around software. Don't think it can happen? Look at Rita Leggett, an Australian national who got an experimental brain. This implant changed her life for the better (helping her control and negate her lifelong seizures that prevented her from participating in everyday life). When the company went belly up and had to close down clinical trials they forced this woman to remove this device. Despite legal actions and pleads, they still forced its removal. In a way, they killed Rita Leggett, and only a part of her brillaint flourishing whole now remains. Each of us will have some similar story in the future, let's get it right BEFORE we need the implants guys.

I often play the OST to this game when driving around town because it's freaking amazing.

I'd love to have heard you talk a bit about your experience playing through routes! I also wish we'd seen more of their mechs for sure.

hearing you say "90mins-2hrs" for a playthrough will a single pilot killed me. took me 3 1/2hrs lmao. IM SLOW OKAY

Thanks for posting this! I was looking for a good gameplay overview. Question for the end of your next video: What's a game you will always come back to?

Absolutely loved this game, just finished it yesterday

played this game for few last days. a gem. one question. why are you calling rygg a he?

Nice video. Interesting games. The only critique from my side. I wondered the whole time on what you're playing these games: PC or Console?

The sequel is coming soon.

You’ll have to keep your eyes out for the sequel coming out later this year, Xenotilt. Same developer and looks just as good as this one!

Thank you so much for this video. I actually came across it from a link the developer themselves posted in the steam's discussion pages for the game. There is so little on this game online, and it is so, so intriguing.

I love this game because I can't see myself playing with it for hours and I honestly really enjoy games like that but on consoles. It's nice to have a game to pass the time if im bored or just want to play something for 15 - 45 minutes.

Just bought the game based on your review, gonna peruse your channel now...

I just came looking for a sumarization of what is going on in the game, and this was quite a great video I saw from start to end for that! Gotta say, I think Miyazawa is kind of the most confusing ending of the game, since it feels sort of contradictory on her own conviction somehow because of how she gives in to the core of the island, is it what we see in her ending what the Island is forecasting according to what she wants to do? or is it that she gets transformed according to her desire of willing to die from the Hole rather than collaborating with the Island? Also I came to this with the same question that is mentioned at the end with the "red moon" or what also seemed to be either Mars or Venus. since is prolly the least filled gap in the game either by text or by the visual cues, the only think I could think of is another planet suffering from the Hole or some sort of collision with other element from the universe, but seems very unclear to me. Anyways, thank you again so much for making the analysis and even reaching out to the dev for more info!

Miyazawa is very confusing, why walk into the portal? It feels like exactly what Rygg would do and does nothing to advance her goals of glorifying the union to the level something like that would require, especially if Dybowski goes as well. Someone has to live to spread the lie and I bet she probably could have gotten Rygg to walk in depending on what kind of connection Rygg had with the higher powers at play. It's also sort of funny that Eldritch is dismissed when Miyazawa seems like she is trying to do exactly what Eldritch fears. She might have improvised the plan on the spot, but that does sort of legitimize a concern of Eldritch's about people in charge.

What a great review. Thanks for this it’s so well described. I have a sister channel where we’ve started a full game play through of this which you could get involved with if you like. Nice work and if you fancy a game, SmoggieAlien is where it’s at. Take care. Liked! 👍

its Soooo hard to find a team on insane I can't work with mostly any team as long as he can understand a bit but then there's some who are obviously not ready and die off the bat. also to help u find players there's some good community members u can find on discord and just be streaming it cause a lot of people are also just looking for a team.

It's a great game, I hope they make more dlc or a sequel.

My problem with it is the speed people run while playing. I treat it like the movie going slow. A random online coop partner sprinted ahead and was pinned down by a xeno. Just let it take him 🤣

Whats the song in 23:40 ?

If you like pinball, try out Rock N Ball for NES. Very unique pinball game

They rocking that gens driver

No fortnite? Smh

I'm a sucker for Skeuomorphism (#8). A good example of it is Highfleet, Also a great game to get lost in.

So, why do you love Broodstar?

Devils Crash rip off.

You said that you were bad at 102m. And now I feel like shit because my high score is 30m

I really dig this genre of game, takes me right back. So many quarters spent in these cabinets. I like that you can do a bit of grinding if you want to power up before a new mission. I noticed that even with the money reduction for completed levels, you can still farm money pretty easily.

What happens if I deny an upgrade?

Hey I'm a bit late but if you like euro Shmups try Jets'n'Guns 1&2. They're on sale right now if you happen to see this

Cool video, but i would love to hear about a secret ending

Well done! Keep 'em coming.

Interesting! I never really got into tower defense games, but this seems more like my thing. I might need to check it out.

Gotta love Raptor, but I also fell in love with Revolution Ace. The Coop aspect was the biggest seller on Revolution Ace, but some of the weapons setup did irk me with that game as well, but it is great fun to have with a friend. Especially if you are both Raptor nostalgic geeks! :D

Just got done with this game. Honestly, I feel like it was too short for its premise - which was extremely interesting, but overall, not enough was fleshed out for me. It could've done with more time to develop the characters and all that good shit; as it is right now, you've barely known them for 15 minutes before they start spouting philosophy, and I found it difficult to get invested with them. They're less like *people* and more like vague archetypes. I do appreciate the vivid imagery the game gives you, and I quite like the music. But the endings are far too vague for my tastes; Elridge's cuts off before anything actually really happens, Rygg's left me with only the faintest idea of how she reached her conclusions and with no idea of how we got to where we were at the end of it... And when I first got Miyazawa's ending, I wasn't sure what had even *happened.* (Though I do have an idea after giving it some thought afterwards.) I was pretty excited to piece the lore together through multiple playthroughs, only to find there was barely any lore given to you at all. I do find it hilarious (in a good way) that most of my setting info was acquired through arguing with a conspiracy theorist, but there just wasn't enough for it in my tastes. I would love to sink my teeth into the world of Stars Die, but that world doesn't seem to exist after all. also, I still don't know why it's called Stars Die. But hey, it *was* only $5. I'd say I still got my money's worth.
